Nice work

Good work, is that a custom made or a kit you ordered?

**3800scpowered** · 03-11-2011, 10:48 PM

Custom made.

Whats that grey backplate made of?

You can check out my build thread at mp3car.com ()

Did you connect power?

have Xoom versions available now. I have photos at the end of the build thread.

It is made from aluminum. I use the standard desk dock mounted in from the back. Has power in and audio out to the radio. The dock mounts in the empty din above the radio.

Very nice work. I'm impressed.

**dhendriksen** · 03-12-2011, 08:55 AM

That looks great. I assume you have some manufacturing abilities. How much for one of those? I can do the integration.

**ceriem** · 03-12-2011, 09:57 AM

That's some really great work you've done. It looks like you put some serious work into it. Just be safe behind the wheel now!

**mrksbrd** · 03-12-2011, 10:06 AM

I want to order 1

**pwnst_r** · 03-12-2011, 10:11 AM

Awesome craftsmanship and idea. Really good work.

**cvmaas#AC** · 03-12-2011, 10:19 AM

How is it attached to the car? Is it fixed, or did you do something to angle it around?

**JaxDomino** · 03-12-2011, 10:25 AM

Can you PM me the specs? I wanna see if I can our metal shop at work to build this or my uncle.

I created an account just to answer you. I just did this to hook up my EVO to my in dash unit. You can get a cable that will convert HDMI to RCA online here http://www.amazon.com/HDMI-RCA-VGA-Cable-1-8ft/dp/B002ZUI68G/ref=pd_sxp_f_pt but I don't know if it will work or not by itself, see below.

That actually works thought it needed to be hardware conversion to work?

**skyfox99** · 03-12-2011, 11:11 AM

Yeah I just thought about that, I have a box that it also plus into that my buddy got. I think it converts the signal... Let me ask how he did it.

Just sent him a text, the cable he put in converts the cable from micro HDMI to RCA (that he got off line), then that plus into a conversion box. This our what happens when you don't do the stuff yourself! Said the box will run about 50 bucks.

Yeah, no... I'm an *****. I just looked at my TV he set up. It's micro HDMI to standard HDMI, then that plus into a box directly, then the RCA cables come out of that and into the TV... So that is my set up. Forgive the random posts of crappy information.

now that has to have power supplied to it in a car instead of 110v

**cmorty72#AC** · 03-12-2011, 12:02 PM

Looks great!!!
I was pondering how come tab manufacturers haven't already devised something along these ranks.
Job well done!
I can imagine the Xoom as being one helluva nav unit for your ride.
